Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Profile of Insulin Lispro Using Needle-Free Jet Injection Technology

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Healthy
Registration Number
NCT02443714
Lead Sponsor
Chongqing Medical University
Brief Summary

Needle-free jet injector provides an alternative for patients with diabetes treated by insulin. This study aimed at evaluating pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (PK-PD) profiles of lispro administered by jet injector and conventional pen.

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, crossover study. Eighteen healthy volunteers will be recruited. Lispro (0.2 units/kg) will be administered by jet injector or by conventional pen and a seven-hour euglycemic clamp test will be performed. PK-PD profiles of lispro will be calculated.
